DiCaprio And Iñárritu Set For "The Revenant"

THR reports that Leonardo DiCaprio and director Alejandro González Iñárritu will team up for the period revenge thriller "The Revenant".


Based on author Michael Punke's novel, the story follows a gold-seeking fur trapper who is mauled by a bear. When the two men who are were supposed to take care of him rob him and leave him to die alone, the man wills himself to survive and goes on a 350 mile journey though the wilderness.

Mark L. Smith penned the adapted script.

Inarritu, Arnon Milchan, James Skotchdopole, Steve Golin, Keith Redmon and David Kanter will produce.

 Production is slated to begin in September ahead of a Fall 2015 release.
